“Store manager”

Kylee R.
5/26/23

I really enjoy shopping at this store and I appreciate the selection of clothes and items available. However, I am disappointed to know that the district manager allows the store manager to work alone. Although she is a friendly and compassionate person, it is evident that she works tirelessly and could benefit from additional support. The reason I put 5 stars is because I really like the store manager.

“Very rude and Judy”

Brooke L.
8/18/23

Very rude trying to put somthing back on a hanger and being questioned what I'm doing in a rude way and making me feel like I can't try anything on and very rude at the cash register telling me to read stuff correctly thinking I don't have enough money which I did and I had plenty of stuff in my hands and she made me try to put away instead of giving it to her and had a really rude tone. She judged me from the start thinking I don't have enough money.

I would make it NO stars but you have to select a star to write a review. I purchased a pair of sweat pants and a Jean shirt. I went home and the sweat pants had a hole in it and the Jean shirt had the alarm tag still on it. I thought, no big deal. I have the receipt! I went to the store in Braintree mail. (That is where I purchased it) I was told the shirt was not on the receipt, as if I stole it. I said I purchased this 2 days ago. The women said I was unable to keep the shirt because I did not pay for it. (Keep in mind I am a black women) another black women walked over and LOOKED at the receipt and said she did purchase it, the screw number is on the receipt. Then they said I could not exchange the sweat pants because it had an hole in it. I said I purchased it like that. They would not allow me to exchange. I asked to speak to a manager and they called her. She said the same thing. I explained if that is their policy then they need to check clothes out because allowing people to purchase. Long story short. I had to keep the pants that had a hole in it! I will never go to this store again. The managers were not helpful and seemed not to care.

Ordered: Faux black leather bodycon mini dress, size large

I love this dress! Its super cute! It was only USD $ 7.20. I am busty so I ordered a large. I like the fit, its stretchy so I could possibly have gone with a medium. The brand is Wet Seal.

This was my first time ordering so I did get a discount. Very, very happy!

$18 dollars to ship back a return. What a rip off and misleading. I will not shop on this site again.

I bought a pair of pants that didn't fit and was told by the sales associate who made my purchase that they didn't do returns just exchanges and store credit. But these pants are poorly manufactured with the lining in the waist and hip leg area and placement of buttons on the pants. One legs of the pants has more room than the other due to the poor sewing quality. I should have read the store reviews before making a purchase. I'll be donating these pants. Glad they were only $14.

Tip for consumers:
no refunds and exchanges only.

I purchased 2 pairs of jeans a week ago. Tried them on at home due to fitting rooms still closed to Covid-19 (2 years ago). I took tags off and washed them. After washing them realized one pair had a hole just under the belt loop. The other seems alright still so as I put them on the whole zipper broke off! I went in about a week later (after purchase date) to explain what happened they said they can't return them at all cuz tags were taken off. I normally always buy my Jean from here but I will not be anymore. The lady upfront was rude and didn't even say sorry for the inconvenience just look at me with a blank face till I walked away.

Tip for consumers:
Jeans are bad quality easily breakable to holes and broken zippers!

I loved shopping with Charlotte Russe, especially buying my jeans from them because I never had to try them on and knew it would fit. So when they went bankrupt I was understandably upset, because if I shopped anywhere for jeans I would have to try them on and the idea of having to try on jeans was never something I enjoyed. Once they reopened I was beyond excited and decided to purchase some items online, after placing my order I did a little research and saw the horrible reviews of the "new" Charlotte Russe. It was then that I was afraid because at that point it had already been 2 weeks and my items had yet to arrive. But when they arrived I was happy, everything fit and the quality was exactly how I hoped it would be. I may no longer purchase online because of the long shipping but I would definitely continue to shop with Charlotte Russe.

Tip for consumers:
Shipping may take a while but the quality of them items was what I expected.

I ordered some clothes online recently. I got them when they were expected to arrive, in the right size and color, and without anything damaged. This is the only reason I gave 3 stars. The problem that I have with CR is that the clothes are very flimsy and they clearly charge far more than the garments are worth. There are no reviews on the site, which is very shady to me. It's clear as to why, because one of the items I ordered is shaped so strangely I'm not sure who it would fit. I ordered 3 items, two of which I considered returning, but decided against because it sounds like it would be more trouble than it's worth. I am disappointed in the experience to say the least, and I can't even leave a bad review under the items I didn't like.

Tip for consumers:
Do not order online. The return policy is basically nonexistent, the clothes are not good quality, especially for the price, and there are tons of negative reviews about customer service, sizing, and shipping.

Products used:
Large Cropped Colour Block Zip-Up Windbreaker Hooded Jacket in Lilac (true to size, not worth the price)
Large High-Rise Linen Drawstring Jogger in Black (ill-fitting, but reasonably priced)
Medium Lace Mesh Underwire Bodysuit (runs small, oddly shaped, uncomfortable fit and material. I got this on sale for $12.50 so I guess I got what I paid for)

May 31,2022. Mary BA. I had a great experience walking into Charlotte Rouse in Altamonte. Very friendly staff and leadership! I was helped and greeted from the moment I entered the store. They helped me find exactly what I was looking for and at a reasonable price. I surely will return and recommend any shopping at this location in Altamonte! KB was amazing! Thank you

Ever since they closed down and re opened, the clothing in there is cheap looking and the poorest of quality. Very non trendy! It's pure house/ Lounge clothing! Please bring back the originals! Please! Look at the ratings! Do you guys even care? If not close down! Let it remain a phantom of our imagination of what was once was!

Tip for consumers:
Do not buy from them unless you are looking for house clothes !!

This store has no fitting room to try the dress on. You have to buy it and try somewhere else. You won't be refunded and force you sto get a store credit. The store manager has no experience on how to talk to customers. She is rude! I wont come here.

I've shopped here for years and never had issues. I've ordered online as well a few times and never had issues until recently. Apparently my package was deemed lost because I never received it however customer service was helpful and refunded my money. I didn't like that I had to fill out a form because I didn't receive anything ever. If I had received a few items I would understand filling out the form to let them know what was missing. Anyway besides that, they were helpful and responder quickly. I still love the store so I will give another last try buying online and hope no more issues like this happen. It's probably better to shop in stores to avoid issues like shipping or wrong sizing because they tend to run small. I usually order up.

Bought a 15 dollar looney tunes sweater…
Bought a 15 dollar looney tunes sweater that was originally $40. Received it today and the quality of the print was not the best. Then I looked at the TM print at the bottom corner and it looks super bootleg. It has a TM print with another TM print over the 1st one. Good thing I didn't pay the full price but still wth! 40 bucks for this type of quality, not cool. Definitely can't give this as a Christmas gift.

We purchased our daughter several pairs of jeans for her to try on at home because the fitting rooms are still closed due to Covid (2 years later). When I went back to return the ones that didn't fit less than an hour later, I was told they don't do returns either.

Charlotte Russe stores in malls usually look like indoor garage sales, so I hate shopping in-store. However, I love online shopping at Charlotte Russe. I pick out at least 10 clothing items per order and they always come on time. They quality of their clothes is not the best, but you get what you pay for. For the price, I'm always very satisfied. I have yet to have a bad experience and recommend this website anyone who likes online shopping and trendy stylish clothes!

I really like this store specifically for crop tops/tops, dresses, underwear, sandals, and jewelry. Been using this site for the last few years and never had any issues except the occasional out of stock product which has always been refunded.
They always seem to be having different sales/promotions going on.
I've spent anywhere between 6$ (with free shipping) and 100$ on a single order with no problems at all.
Nice quality and cute styles!
:D
